I offer this up without commentary. The YouTube comments are everything I’d hoped they would be. Enjoy.

Good Lord!
A communist revolution is well underway, and the DHS is spending resources on this.

No. The 5.56mm round will not “knock yo’ bitch ass down.”
No. That’s not a bullpup.
No. That’s not a shorty. It looks to me like a 20″ barrel, common on earlier AR platforms.
No. Guns don’t “go off” every day of basic training with people getting killed.
No. The AR platform isn’t that reckless and dangerous. Eugene Stoner was a genius, and he objects to your stupidity.
No. The BCG moving forward is by design to chamber a round – it does not cause a round to discharge.
Yes. This NFAC leader is an imbecile.

There are other test setups that are not nearly as good or consistent, but I think he does a fairly good job of the testing. Frankly, the rounds performed about as expected, and also virtually the same.
In the bush, I’ll stick with .45 ACP or .450 SMC. In big bear country, I suspect most of them are committed to something larger and faster like the .454 Casull or .44 Magnum. I’ll have to say that while I’ve heard that 10mm is becoming a popular round in big bear country, I don’t think it’s going to do what it is purported to do.

More perspectives on the ammo shortage.
“We’ve already been told from the manufacturers mostly like, it’s looking like maybe late third quarter, maybe late fall, and it could be pushed into winter or 2021 until we get a lot of the product,” he said.
While Farhat said his store does have ammo in stock, but it’s costing more right now because he’s not able to buy it wholesale.
“We’ve had to go out and purchase through outside distributors that are able to sell us limited quantities here and there, and we just have to make do with what we can get,” he said.
That’s a lot of slush in his estimate. Of course, I wouldn’t expect the supply chain ever to catch up with demand depending on the election cycle.

Mr. Guns ‘n Gear reviews the new Strealight models. For reference, 1 Candela emitted over a 4π solid angle = 12.566 lumens. Lumens is the total amount of light emitted. Candela is the light sent in a direction of a particular solid angle, so he’s referring to the tightness of the light pattern.

Great people. Just swell. I say they should be shot on sight when waving green light lasers around. And prosecute the media for conspiracy to commit the crime.

NRO.
The conservative wing of the Supreme Court reportedly declined to take up a case dealing with Second Amendment rights after Chief Justice John Roberts indicated that he would vote with the court’s liberal justices.
In June, the justices rejected petitions from 10 challenges relating to state restrictions on firearms after Roberts signaled he would not vote with them, depriving the court’s conservatives of the fifth vote needed to overturn gun regulations, CNN reported Monday.
[ … ]
The four most reliably conservative justices were not confident that they would get a fifth vote from Roberts on the case or similar cases addressing the Second Amendment, according to unidentified sources cited by CNN.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh penned an unsigned opinion that was overseen by Roberts for that case in which six justices agreed that the case should be relegated to the lower court. In a separate statement that Kavanaugh signed, he said that the Supreme Court should address “soon” the issue of varying interpretations of the Second Amendment.
Somebody surely has something on Roberts.
So if this report is to be taken as true and accurate, the four justices stopped what could have been a defeat for the observation of gun rights in America by simply refusing to take cases.
Roberts is the stated reason. If this report is accurate, it’s probably best that nothing was done.
